I am considering moving out of TX to Maryland just for a change and more cultural. I live in the DFW area only water we have close by are dirty lakes mosquitoes are a major issue here. Summers can be horrendous to point that the heat literally drains you and makes you sick. Last year I ended up in the ER due to dehydration because I am a home health nurse. I thought I was staying hydrated and cool driving from house to house however with the 100+ degrees temperatures with heat indexs in the 107 or 110 w/ 100% humidity it didn't matter that I was drinking a gallon of water and Gatorade daily. The more I think about getting out of this place the more excited I get.

Go for it! Life's too short to be miserable. Maryland has the ocean, large cities, small towns, mountains. They used to have a slogan something like "America in miniature".

Give people some idea of what you are looking FOR (we get it--don't like Texas but why Maryland?) and they can give you endless suggestions. Just a general price range, type of house, size/age of family, etc. and these nice posters will help you find the best place.

Best of luck.


P.S. Pay no attention to my user name. Spent many, many years in Maryland and have tons of family there.

OK, you won't notice much difference except our heat index gets close to that with lower actual temperatures. It's not a dry heat.

I moved from Baltimore to Dallas. Trust me, the heat here is nothing compared to the combined heat/humidity in central Maryland. Yeah, it gets HOT in Texas for 3 months but, we rarely have the humidity here that you have ALL summer long in Maryland. Not to mention the never ending overcast skies in Maryland. Don't like the heat consider going a bit farther north than central Maryland. Although I do miss the Chesapeake Bay and the Harbor, the weather alone will keep me from ever going back. Good luck in your search.

it gets hot in Maryland but nothing compared to most of Texas, plus there's mountains and the ocean.
